GOOGLE+ FOR BUSINESS

Google+ is the new social network launched by the #1 search engine in the world, Google, and it changes everything! Why? Because Google (the search engine) indexes public posts on Google+ (the social network) rather quickly, and it seeks out social interactions and links shared within that social network to sites like yours. Google+ is built with collaboration in mind. There are several technologies available for free inside of this social network that you’re paying for elsewhere.

CULTIVATING VISIBILITY: HOW TO AMPLIFY THE HUMAN DIGITAL CHANNEL

You’ve invested time and money into your website, which serves as the online representation of your shop. You’ve been told that you should have a Twitter account and that you should be on Facebook, but what does that all do for you? Learn how to become the ultimate digital shopkeeper by understanding how to use social software to build relationships with your prospects and your customers. Learn how to earn leverage from your community, by cultivating two-way loyalty and earning referrals.

THE FRONTIER IS NOW: HOW TO MAKE WORK AND BUILD BUSINESS

Telling you that the Internet has changed things won’t stun you. You’ve seen it. Netflix, Amazon, Zappos, Groupon. You know all the stories. But there are small business solutions you could use to make more work, to build more business, to get more sales. Tweeting out coupons isn’t the future. Building relationships and investing in delivering human-minded business is now. This won’t be theory. We’re here to talk action, execution, and your next steps to success.

TOUCH: THE VITAL IMPORTANCE OF BRINGING HUMAN INTERACTIONS INTO YOUR DIGITAL BUSINESS EXPERIENCE

Who cares what you’ve spent on your marketing campaign, if your customers don’t feel the same when they experience the actual thing? How often do you contact and interact with existing customers, simply to ensure they’re continued satisfaction? How much of this is on the web? What good is your Twitter profile if you can’t please a guest standing in your store? Join Chris Brogan in an engaging and passionate dive into what comes next for improving your company for the coming years.
